The rum spheres were great to make, I had never seen them made so I asked Chef Lasorella to show the class how to make these. It's pretty simple the recipe follows:
10 G Dark rum
100 G Light brown sugar
355G water
8G Calcium Lactate
10 G Unsulfured dark Molasses
1400 G Water
65 G sugar
6 G Sodium Aliginate
1. Bring rum, brown sugar, water, calicum lactate, and molasses to a boil over medium heat.
2. Strain through coffee filter into container.
3. Refrigerate until well chilled.
4. Measure 500 G of liquid and set aside
5. Use remaining of the liquid to fill hemispheric molds 1" in diameter, then freeze.
6. Make Sodium alginate bath
mix water, sugar and sodium alginate in a medium saucepan
warm to dissolve sugar and sodium alginate
strain through chinois into deep container
7. Disperse frozen spheres evenly in warm sodium alginate bath, make sure they don't touch each other.
8. As spheres thaw, they will form a thin membrane that will encapsulate the liquid center.
9. Fill 2 large stainless steel bowls with warm water.
10. When spheres have fully encapsulated, remove with slotted spoon and drop into 1 bowl of hot water.
11. Stir Gently to rinse.
12. Enjoy
